Using $e^+e^-toLambda_c^+barLambda_c^-$ production from a 567 pb$^{-1}$ data sample collected by BESIII at 4.6 GeV, a full angular analysis is carried out simultaneously on the four decay modes of $Lambda_c^+to pK_S^0$, $Lambda pi^+$, $Sigma^+pi^0$, and $Sigma^0pi^+$. For the first time, the $Lambda_c^+$ transverse polarization is studied in unpolarized $e^+e^-$ collisions, where a non-zero effect is observed with a statistical significance of 2.1$sigma$. The decay asymmetry parameters of the $Lambda_c^+$ weak hadronic decays into $pK_S^0$, $Lambdapi^+$, $Sigma^+pi^0$ and $Sigma^0pi^+$ are measured to be $0.18pm0.43(rm{stat})pm0.14(rm{syst})$, $-0.80pm0.11(rm{stat})pm0.02(rm{syst})$, $-0.57pm0.10(rm{stat})pm0.07(rm{syst})$, and $-0.73pm0.17(rm{stat})pm0.07(rm{syst})$, respectively. In comparison with previous results, the measurements for the $Lambdapi^+$ and $Sigma^+pi^0$ modes are consistent but with improved precision, while the parameters for the $pK_S^0$ and $Sigma^0pi^+$ modes are measured for the first time.

We report the first observation of the decay $Lambda^+_{c}rightarrow Sigma^- pi^+pi^+pi^0$, based on data obtained in $e^+e^-$ annihilations with an integrated luminosity of 567~pb$^{-1}$ at $sqrt{s}=4.6$~GeV. The data were collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII storage rings. The absolute branching fraction $mathcal{B}(Lambda^+_{c}rightarrowSigma^-pi^+pi^+pi^0)$ is determined to be $(2.11pm0.33({rm stat.})pm0.14({rm syst.}))%$. In addition, an improved measurement of $mathcal{B}(Lambda^+_{c}rightarrowSigma^-pi^+pi^+)$ is determined as $(1.81pm0.17({rm stat.})pm0.09({rm syst.}))%$.
We analyze the mixing between $Sigma^0$ and $Lambda^0$ based on the baryon masses. We distinguish the contributions from QCD and QED in the baryon mass splittings. We find that the mixing angle between $Sigma^0$ and $Lambda^0$ is $(2.07pm 0.03)times 10^{-2} $, which leads to the decay branching fraction and up-down asymmetry of $Lambda_c^+ to Sigma^0 e^+ u_e$ to be ${cal B}(Lambda_c^+ to Sigma^0 e^+ u_e)=(1.5pm 0.2)times 10^{-5}$ and $alpha(Lambda_c^+ to Sigma^0 e^+ u_e)=-0.86pm 0.04$, respectively. Moreover, we obtain that $Delta {cal B}equiv {cal B}(Lambda_c^+to Sigma^0 pi^+) - {cal B}(Lambda_c^+to Sigma^+pi^0)=(3.8pm 0.5)times 10^{-4}$ and $Delta alpha equivalpha(Lambda_c^+to Sigma^0 pi^+) -alpha(Lambda_c^+to Sigma^+pi^0)=(-1.6pm 0.7)times10^{-2}$, which should vanish without the mixing.
We present a measurement of $B(pi^0 rightarrow e^+e^- gamma)/B(pi^0 rightarrow gammagamma)$, the Dalitz branching ratio, using data taken in 1999 by the E832 KTeV experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. We use neutral pions from fully reconstructed $K_L$ decays in flight; the measurement is based on about 60 thousand $K_L rightarrow pi^0pi^0pi^0 rightarrow gammagamma~gammagamma~e^+e^-gamma$ decays. We normalize to $K_L rightarrow pi^0pi^0pi^0 rightarrow 6gamma$ decays. We find $B(pi^0 rightarrow e^+e^- gamma)/B(pi^0 rightarrow gammagamma)$ $(m_{e^+e^-}$ > 15 MeV/$c^2)$ = $[3.920 pm 0.016(stat) pm 0.036 (syst)] times 10^{-3}$. Using the Mikaelian and Smith prediction for the $e^+e^-$ mass spectrum, we correct the result to the full $e^+e^-$ mass range. The corrected result is $B(pi^0 rightarrow e^+e^- gamma)/B(pi^0 rightarrow gammagamma) = [1.1559 pm 0.0047(stat) pm 0.0106 (syst)]$%. This result is consistent with previous measurements and the uncertainty is a factor of three smaller than any previous measurement.
We have searched for the Cabibbo-suppressed decay $Lambda_c^+tophi ppi^0$ in $e^+e^-$ collisions using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 915 $rm fb^{-1}$. The data were collected by the Belle experiment at the KEKB $e^+e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider running at or near the $Upsilon(4S)$ and $Upsilon(5S)$ resonances. No significant signal is observed, and we set an upper limit on the branching fraction of $mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^+to phi ppi^0) <15.3times10^{-5}$ at 90% confidence level. The contribution for nonresonant $Lambda_c^+to K^+K^- ppi^0$ decays is found to be consistent with zero and the corresponding upper limit on its branching fraction is set to be $mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^+to K^+K^-ppi^0)_{rm NR} <6.3times10^{-5} $ at 90% confidence level. We also measure the branching fraction for the Cabibbo-favored decay $Lambda_c^+to K^-pi^+ppi^0$; the result is $mathcal{B}(Lambda_c^+to K^-pi^+ppi^0)= (4.42pm0.05, (rm stat.) pm 0.12, (rm syst.) pm 0.16, (mathcal{B}_{rm Norm}))%$, which is the most precise measurement to date. Finally, we have searched for an intermediate hidden-strangeness pentaquark decay $P^+_stophi p$. We see no evidence for this intermediate decay and set an upper limit on the product branching fraction of ${cal B}(Lambda_c^+to P^+_s pi^0)times {cal B}(P^+_stophi p) <8.3times 10^{-5}$ at 90% confidence level.
We report measurements of CP violation parameters in $B^0 to K^0 pi^0$ decays based on a data sample of $657 times 10^6 Bbar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^+ e^-$ asymmetric-energy collider. We use $B^0 to K^0_S pi^0$ decays for both mixing-induced and direct $CP$ violating asymmetry measurements and $B^0 to K^0_L pi^0$ decays for the direct CP violation measurement. The CP violation parameters obtained are $sin 2 phi_1^{rm eff} = +0.67 pm 0.31{(stat)} pm 0.08 {(syst)}$ and $mathcal{A}_{K^0 pi^0} = +0.14 pm 0.13{(stat)} pm 0.06 {(syst)}$. The branching fraction of $B^0 to K^0 pi^0$ decay is measured to be $mathcal{B}(B^0 to K^0 pi^0) = (8.7pm0.5 (rm{stat.})pm0.6 (rm{syst.}))times 10^{-6}$. The observed $mathcal{A}_{K^0 pi^0}$ value differs by 1.9 standard deviations from the value expected from an isospin sum rule.
